Angry. Hopeless. Defeated.
In other news, I was in a meeting for 1h45m where I was told I need to just "get things done" and got some very good advice (NOT) on how to "just do them and knock things out." I am DROWNING in work. There is no end in sight except for a 7 day meeting at the end of the month where I will have to work 16 hours a day. Oh yes and add to that they want all kinds of brilliant creative strategies, marketing plans for like 6 undefined things AND still chase down all the administrative bullshit AND daily crap like working on brochures oh yes AND still getting PR and articles which could take up 100% of my time AND come up with some wild and amazing website plan that will get the members excited! Oh yes, don't forget the timesheets and all the OTHER crap I am tasked with like being the office IT person, lifting shit b/c I am the only young strong male, cleaning the kitchen on my assigned day, corporate marketing AND yes another completely different client to whom I sold new business which now needs to be worked on and there's even more. So to add it all up, you have all that shit up there I just mentioned (of course it's all priority #1) plus the fact I get ZERO and I mean ZERO recognition, thanks, praise or encouragement for what I do (nobody has barely said a word about my Toronto article).
I HATE THIS PLACE. It is TOXIC. I feel like screaming or punching something. Why can't anything ever work out? I hate this place. I hate it so much.

Just in case anyone is wondering, Tos has actually understated the toxicity of the environment in which he works. Some of the people there can only be described as evil beings.

Thank you mystery person - sometimes I think people must think I am crazy b/c it just sounds almost too absurd to be true - I wish!

onewhoknows speaks the truth. Senior leadership in that office is amazing mediocre and small-minded, and consistently finds ways to alienate and belittle the staff who actually do all the work. And don't get me started on Tos' boss... he's probably the worst of the lot.
